Steering Column Interchange Question

[thefraze_1020]

My 84 C-20 has a non-tilt, non-cruise steering column with floor shift. Since it's a 1984, the wiper switch is on the column. I am curious of which years will work to replace the column.

I know 1984 is the first year that will work, but how far up can I go? Into the 1990's perhaps?

I would think '84-'87 truck and '88-'91 suburban blazer and crew cab.

I was thinking so too, but I was curious if the columns up to 1994 on the newer body style would work also, they look similar anyway (minus the steering wheel).

I don't know for sure but I would guess that the column it self is the same but the mounts are different. For sure the lower plate that bolts to the firewall is different.

Maybe this guy can ship you this tilt floor shift column out of an 85.

Looks like a decent column, but I'm looking to stay non-tilt.

Thanks for the thought though!

I don't thing cruise or non-cruise would matter. I changed my cruise to non-cruise just by pulling out the stalk and wire and pushing in a non-cruise arm. Old one was peeling chrome anyway.
